when i did my mk5 xr3i 130 (turbo conversion) i ran it on std management for a few days after i had put on the various turbo bits (to prove all was well mechanically befoe putting on MS) Although all atempts were made to drive like a nun on a moped, i did put my foot down a couple of times, it felt VERY flat, and leaned off big style on the AFR gauge, not a good solution to the management required for turbo application, i think the std maff maxes out around 150bhp too.
